Retail investors will not be impacted by this decision, said the firm, and will continue to be able to use the platform in the U.S., including Crypto.com's CFTC-regulated UpDown Options.
The decision comes in the same week as crypto exchanges Binance and Coinbase were sued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on allegations that they have violated securities laws.
